Hi, Alexander,

maybe post the part for the disk in your output of your daily security
checks here, would be much  easier to find out what the trigger may be.

What file/directories are accessed, when it comes to that point? 

IMHO:  i believe it is just because the hdd is "there", so i think when
the cron runs it just checks that the disk is still there.


thx
